Dear friends, my students, my colleague Franck and I are very happy to show you our new video of Ruslan and Ludmila overture ! thanks to an idea of my friend Jacques Poullot 🙏✨We recorded this brilliantly energetic Glinka masterpiece in the same conditions than our last video of Candide, at home, with phones and headphones only. Based on a Pushkin poem, the opera was released in 1842, and the action is settled in pagan Russia, the beautiful Ludmila is wooed by three admirers and eventually won, after a healthy dose of sorcery both good and evil, by the fair knight Ruslan. The overture rapidly became a favorite curtain-raiser, the kind of bonbon that tends to begin seasons or serve as encore after a splendid evening. We hope it will help you begin your day the best way possible 😊✨ STAY SAFE ! 💖 Conservatoire national supérieur musique et danse de Lyon Franck Amet Victor Bourhis Maxime Conoir Diogo Falcão Théo Fuhrer Tomomi Inoue Li Ling Lee Stasys Makstutis Ferran Garcerà Perelló Sang Jin Park Mikel Zugarramurdi Lasa
